PH006Stress Resilience

Capacity to buffer, adapt to, and recover from stress exposure.

How well the system buffers stress, adapts under pressure, and returns toward baseline afterward.

Therapeutic areas: TA001TA002TA003TA006

Provenance: Core Version 1 registry phenome for adaptive stress buffering. Benchmarked against RDoC Negative Valence and Arousal systems; distinct from Stress Reactivity (PH015) per RF002. (origin: BRAIN)

  • Post-traumatic stress disorder — resilience contexts

Foundational Evidence

Evidence Confidence: Low–Medium

Registry-level score for this phenome's foundational evidence stack — not Biology → Phenome Confidence on individual mechanism pages.

Endocannabinoid and stress-adaptation reviews are strong; human dietary stress-resilience outcomes are indirect (omega-3 anxiety, oatmeal preclinical adjunct).

Registry-level foundational evidence for this phenome. Mechanism pages link to phenome IDs and carry relationship-specific evidence — not duplicated here.
